Abstract :
The adaptive antenna is traditionally used in nonconsumer applications due to large size, complexity, or cost constraints. This work describes an architecture for an smart antenna system that can be designed using integrated circuits. This method uses LINC amplifiers and baseband processing to implement a low-cost transmitter beamformer for use in WLAN applications.
